What Moves the Dead by T Kingfisher
An instant USA Today & Indie bestseller
From T. Kingfisher, the award-winning author of The Twisted Ones, comes What Moves the Dead, a gripping and atmospheric retelling of Edgar Allan Poe's classic The Fall of the House of Usher.
Ursula Vernon, a North Carolina-based author, goes by the pen name T.Kingfisher. She has been nominated for the Hugo, Sequoyah, Nebula, Alfie, WSFA, Cóyotl, and Ursa Major awards, as well as a half-dozen Junior Library Guild picks, and has won the Hugo, Sequoyah, Nebula, Alfie, WSFA, Cóyotl, and Ursa Major awards. This is the name she goes by when she writes for adults. Many fairy-tale retellings and strange short stories about elves and goblins are among her works.
She's probably out in the garden, attempting to make eye contact with butterflies while she's not writing. Redwombat Studio can be found at www.redwombatstudio.com.
